Absolutely.

I’m a retailer. All it takes is one simple reason to try another store for the same stuff that I sell. Once that happens...bang...they have a new habit, and you have one less customer.

I got in a dispute with a local convenience store owner over returning a bottle of propane that wasn't functioning. He finally agreed to take it back, but told me never to do it again. I accommodated his request, totally.

I was spending about $2,000 a year in that store by my calculation. Now I spend maybe $200 a year, when I have to, for convenient gasoline. It's cost him maybe $10,000 to $15,000 in revenue from me.

Unnoticed, of course. I never said a word to him. I just stopped shopping there.

As a Conservative Senior and a consumer, I’ve got news for retailers,there are more than 3 age groups. Babies, toddlers and 20 year old’s.

When the clothing you put on your racks are cheap made in China rags and look like they belong on a street walker, I won’t shop your store. When you refuse to stock size 5M shoes, I have no reason to shop your store. Then lie to me and tell me that size is not made..well you can find them in Las Vegas, even at the airport shops. Nor do I want that Alfred Dunner brand. It is expensive and made for those who have a hard time dressing themselves.

And if I can’t safely use a dressing room or RR with out fear a confused gender person entering my space, I won’t shop your store. Thank you AMAZON, and your easy return policy. I can shop Salvation Army too.

Now if I need a part for the car there are plenty of stores that sell only car parts. Or a tool that I can get from Lowe’s.
